From the chef
A third generation chef who carries on his family’s legacy with culinary passion.
He was born in October of 1975 and grew up in Gifu Prefecture. His parents managed Uotora during his childhood, and he knew that one day he would take over the restaurant as the third generation heir. At age 18, he started an apprenticeship under his father to start learning the family business, and then eventually he took over for his family and turned the restaurant into Sumibiyaki Unagi Uotora to focus on making dishes with unagi (eel) in the Gujo area of Gifu Prefecture. With his deep love for unagi cuisine, so much so that he is capable of visiting no fewer than three eel establishments a day when on holiday. He spends each and every day training hard to master and learn all there is to know about unagi.
